I unlocked bootloader and installed CM7 a long time ago, now i am on CM9 and today, upon flashing a newer version of jokers CM9, have apparantly lost root according to root checker. Superuser refuses to work sating it has unfortunately stopped and reflashing, fixing permissions and downloading su from play does not seem to work. most guides i have found for root are either for gb or are too old now and do not link to any files... any ideas?

Did you allow root access in the developer options?

Alright so I have a Droid 1. I was originally running 2.1 and was rooted and everything was fine. I found a one click root for froyo so I unrooted my phone and updated to froyo. When the phone was updated I downloaded z4root and rooted my phone and it worked until another update popped up and I agreed to update again. After the new update I had superuser permission still but all Apps that require root failed so I tried rooting again and it says I'm already rooted. I've done everything I can think of and nothing. I do not have a computer so my options are limited. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I updated my rooted Droid 2 (Not Global) OTA through Verizon. When my phone rebooted I lost my root access. Z4Root, Gingerbreak and Superoneclick don't work! Is anyone working on a fix so I don't have to drop down to 2.3.2 and then re-install the rooted version of 2.3.3?
Why yes...yes you can!
Try http://goo.gl/wjHTi. You need the file "MotorolaOneClickRoot.zip". It all went pretty smooth for me.
Didn't work.
I tried MotorolaOnClickRoot and wasn't able to make it work. It went through the entire process, claimed I was rooted and when I tried to get access I was denied. Suggestions?
Hello all,
I have had my Galaxy i5500 for awhile now and have used odin to flash updates for the firmware etc.
I have recently rooted my phone using Superoneclick and this worked fine. Overclocked the phone, and ran a number of Apps using SuperUser Access to gain all the benefits from this.
I installed Titanium Backup and Installed it on my SD Card, this caused a number of problems and I had to pull the battery on my phone to reboot it. Anyway it then hung at the GT-I5500 screen and I ended up having to download a new firmware (not custom) and use Odin to update it.
I now have a working phone, however I now can't root it. I have tried Superoneclick, that no longer works. I have also tried Universal Androot..with that I get an error message of Root Failed - No Fu Guu (or something like that) and I have just tried using z4root... with that it says acquiring Root Shell and then it just kicks me out...have checked and it's not rooted.
I also can't seem to access the reboot menu on my phone (the one where you press a couple of buttons to enter the menu where you can factory set your phone.
Can anyone shed any light on this? Other than these problems mentioned, the phone works as it should
Solved....
It took awhile of trying different root software but.... after reflashing my phone with another stock rom, I found Super One Click still didn't work, nor did z4root or universal Androot (I'm guessing it would have worked without reflashing a different rom).
I did however find that Unlock Root 2.2 worked! My phone is now flashed, no error messages and I have Superuser Access!! Now time to install a custom bootloader and start with the custom roms!!

try using an updated superuser and don't use this section of the thread when asking questions..
you should use CWM to flash superSU.
You will need SuperSU instead of SuperUser.

I rooted my stock Infinity ROM at ICS and have followed all the OTA updates to current 4.2.1 just using OTA Rootkeeper, apparently successfully. It was only recently when I tried to add another app that required root that I discovered I couldn't grant root permissions. To make it worse, I cleared SU data in an attempted fix which successfully removed root from apps that had been OK :crying:
Then I came across this fix that had been applied to a TF300:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183105
It works as described on the TF700 too and seems to have completely fixed my problem.
Thanks to Koush for the fix to blubbhome for posting it somewhere I could find it.
I am out of warranty now and about to install a different ROM so thanks to all devs for the good work.
